Android problem: DexException: Multiple dex files...

[beeant]

Hello,

Thank you for this module.
I have successfully setup on the iOS, but I keep on getting this error while compiling for android.

Unknown source file : com.android.dex.DexException: Multiple dex files define Lcom/google/android/gms/iid/MessengerCompat$1;

See bamlab/react-native-image-resizer#15. This project had a similar issue and a fix was suggested. @beeant please confirm if it works for you.

I'm having the same issue using this lib with https://github.com/zo0r/react-native-push-notification

I think both libs depends on google play services is the reason to cause this problem

I'm having the same issue with RN29. I have no idea how to fix this

[evollu]

have you tried cleaning the build?

[sibelius]

as react-native-push-notification and maybe other packages depends on google play services we need match the google play services in this packages

you can run

./gradlew -q app:dependencies

to discover which packages depends on google play services, and which version they r using

them u can force them to use a specific version

dependencies {
   compile ('com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:9.2.0') {
        force = true; 
   } 
}

@sibelius can you specify which file needs that change?
also react-native-push-notification relies on gms 8.+, could that be an issue?

[sibelius]

u should change android/app/build.gradle

and react-native-push-notification relies on gms 8.+ but u can force another version as above

[evollu]

cool @beeant @rturk does this solve your issue?

[rturk]

@evollu after much work I've managed to make my app work. Thanks.
Looks like latest rnpm link still a little bugged and is not correctly importing packages.

[evollu]

cool.

@evollu Hello, I have a similar conflict with "react-native-intercom" but I am not sure what needs to be done there. Should I do something there? Or here?
